amateurstuntman Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 Yeah, sure but I always prefer to use superglue if I might want to undo what I have done at some point. I still can't work out how to get the thing totally stripped, it's getting on my nerves. Link to post Share on other sites

Vercingetorix Posted April 21, 2008 Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 Where can ya get a heat shield like that? (I can't do ebay ) Also, where can one find a proper rail mount for the top of these? I want to put an EOTech on one..... Link to post Share on other sites

Titleist Posted April 24, 2008 Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 Got my Tanaka 870 Entry model today, early review....awesome. No barrel wobble, heavy as hell, nice and solid. Only bad thing is that the forearm has a noticeable amount of side to side play, we'll see how that stands after some use. That said, I've ordered a real Wilson forearm to replace the tanaka plastic one. I'll take pics tonight. Link to post Share on other sites
Titleist Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 Pics. I hit the ejection port with some steel wool. My real 870 is extremely silver around the edges, I think I need to wear down the gun more to match, agree/disagree? Link to post Share on other sites

Cyclops-a-thon Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 I picked up the G&P Mad Dog foregrip; cycling the gun is extremely easy and actually stabilizes the way I shoot. Might have to get a new pistol grip to make it match up, but definitly worth the $30. Oh, and the reason why I never bought the G&P Outer barrel is simply because the ANGS outer barrel holds down the hop-up spring in place much better than anything I've used to date. I do prefer the look of the Mad Dog outer barrel though... Link to post Share on other sites
Whitedingo Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 Titleist, I'd say wear the ###### out of it! Cyclops, interesting combo! Link to post Share on other sites
newbkiller Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 cyclops, that's an awesome foregrip but I'd get a new pistol grip to match. maybe something like this: http://cheaperthandirt.com/SHT086-56149-2166.html it would be easy to fit on the maruzen too. Link to post Share on other sites

Cyclops-a-thon Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 Whitedingo: Thanks, it looks a bit odd if you look at it as is, but actually looks quite normal if you look at the gun when it is being held/fired. cyclops, that's an awesome foregrip but I'd get a new pistol grip to match. maybe something like this: http://cheaperthandirt.com/SHT086-56149-2166.html it would be easy to fit on the maruzen too. I was thinking about a TacStar, but for some reason, I find them kind of uncomfortable. I was thinking of going back to a Houge Tamer (like this one: http://cgi.ebay.com/Hogue-Pistol-Grip-Remi...1QQcmdZViewItem) but still havent really decided. The thing right now is, the G&P foregrip matches the finish of the Witness Protection grip quite well, whereas the Houge has too much of a rubber finish and the TacStar would look too shiney in contrast with the G&P foregrip... Agh, I dunno... lol Titleist: Looks good as it is, maybe polish up the inner portion of the outer barrel perhaps? I think the rest of the wear will come on its own quite nicely. As always, great pics! Link to post Share on other sites
rhino Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 cyclops, that's sweeeeet! I'd never have thought of putting a vertical foregrip on a sawn-off-handled shottie would work. Still, that looks sweet. I'm thinking of getting another CA870 now and making a "Leon Kennedy" M870 (yeah, it says M1100-P in Resi 2, but that ain't fooling me none. ) Only thing i'd do different is to get the ribbed barrel with vertical front section version, put it on a standard pistolgrip CA870 and replace (only temporarily) the foregrip with a shorty pump handle (well, looks are just as important as skirmishability arent they? ) In the past, i've found it's better to have different parts to change the shottie for whatever game it'll be used in (if anyone remembers when i had my full stocked, long barrelled CA870 and the difference the folding stock and pistol-grip made as an optional extra, they'll know what i mean) Link to post Share on other sites

I think the rest of the wear will come on its own quite nicely. As always, great pics! Yeah I'll polish the inner part of the barrel, that should help it. I was worried I made the ejection port a bit too silver, but it actually looks good outdoors. I think it's a bit jaring because the rest of the gun is so pristine, that'll go away with use and it should look wicked good. Link to post Share on other sites
newbkiller Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 cyclops, I would definitely get that grip, houge is so comfortable and that grip looks ba. Link to post Share on other sites

Titleist Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 I will let you know on monday/tuesday when my real Wilson Combat/Scattergun forearm comes. I've heard from other users they do fit, sometimes it's drop in, sometimes it's not, but I hope it helps reduce the side to side play from the forearm. Now shotgun owners, answer me this (I don't have my real shotgun around to check) is there a little bit of forward/back travel normally in the cocking levers/forearm?

chas Posted April 26, 2008 Report Share Posted April 26, 2008 Tac-Star pistol grip on unsawed ACM M500. Nice! Link to post Share on other sites
Whitedingo Posted April 26, 2008 Report Share Posted April 26, 2008 Now shotgun owners, answer me this (I don't have my real shotgun around to check) is there a little bit of forward/back travel normally in the cocking levers/forearm? My speedfeed forend on my real 870 moves back and forth approximately 2mm when locked in the forward position. That's the actual pump arms moving, not just the pump. Link to post Share on other sites
MODDAN Posted April 26, 2008 Report Share Posted April 26, 2008 Now shotgun owners, answer me this (I don't have my real shotgun around to check) is there a little bit of forward/back travel normally in the cocking levers/forearm? My Tanaka M870 Scattergun also has some travel. Though only when the gun is un-cocked. This is rather annoying, since the travel causes the pump-arms to engage the internal loadingmechanism just enough to prevent the loading of more shells into the gun. I plan to dismantle my M870 someday and tighten every single screw in order to find the cause of this. I want it to work perfectly, especially while playing CQB and you have to load the gun up with shells before entry. Link to post Share on other sites
